(To put it simply, one acre of land in the Edo period was only a little more than 99 square meters, and 7 acres of land is equivalent to one acre of modern land.)

Matsudaira Sadanobu was naturally interested in advanced agricultural tools. His most important policy after taking office was to support agricultural development and increase the government's grain stocks. He did not panic when he had grain in hand. At present, the total population of the island country is around 25 million, and many farmers every day

I just live on a cup of soba noodles. If there is another natural disaster that affects half of the island country, the Matsudaira Sadanobu cabinet will have to step down.

After a moment of silence, young Yoshida Housonghei Nobuaki finally lost his composure and asked: "How about sending someone to Aoba City to take a look at the farm tools mentioned in the letter?"

It is certain to send someone to visit, but the key is how to report this matter to the young general. This is not just a few people sneaking across by boat privately, but tens of thousands of people going to sea to make money for the shogunate.

Matsudaira Sadanobu looked at Makino Sadada and said, "When Marquis Kasama went to Beihai Town, did he ever see those farm tools?"

Makino Sadaga recalled for a while and then shook his head. He was led by people from the Ministry of Civil Affairs of Beihai Town and only visited some factories in general. What shocked him most was the gurgling molten iron and molten steel. As for the various types of

Compared with the shogunate's dillydallying, the Mutsu feudal clans headed by Sendai clan reacted much faster. There was no way around it. In the past few years, everyone was so poor that they had no money, and farmers were grabbing it in large numbers.

Within half a month, three thousand peasants who came from Mutsu domain to catch young men had already boarded the ship and set off.

By this time, Deng Fei and Ding Guofeng, who had been stranded in Sendai Domain for many days, were really impatient with the speed of the shogunate's decision-making, so after communicating with Zhao Xin, they drove the Thunder and Thor to take a walk outside Tokyo Bay.

, and scared the young sea dog Gongfang so much that he ran to Zojoji Temple and hid for two days.

By the end of April, seeing the urgency of the situation, Makino Sadataga finally proposed and Matsudaira Sadanobu made the decision.
